One thing for sure, Twin Cities crowd has gone up with sprint cars added to program.

There were a bunch of cars from central and southern Indiana with nowhere to run last night (Due to all of the rain outs) that are much closer to North Vernon than the Ohio area teams and they didn't show up either. That is what surprised me and why I originally posted. I truly expected 40 to 50 cars to show up. I can't speak to each individual team's finances from this area, but the cost of diesel, and where we decide to go racing, is much more of a factor this year than it was last. It's also possible that some of the teams up around Indy didn't want to pay the tow bill either. That's the only reason I can think of for such a small turn out.
